Thus ;.u/. 20/., or 301., for instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng land Note would only cause double Postage, but 10/. remitted in two notes, would be liable to a much higher charge. It is there fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham burgh, to forward the amount in One Note; or having to receive money from Hamburgh, to receive the same in One Note, when ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England, surpassing the usual amount of One Bank of England Note, may rather be made in Bills of Exchange, on London. To save expenses that may as well be avoided, we request our C orrespondents not to overlook these particulars. HEINE BROTHERS.

A splendid entertainment was given on Friday lasi by the Reformers of Tewkesbury, in honour of Mr. TRACEY, the long-tried and highly -respected Member for that borough. Nearly three hundred gentlemen sat down to dinner ; General Sir JOHN GUISE in the chair. On the health of Lord SEGRAVE, the new Lord Lieutenant of Gloucestershire, being given, the Noble Lord made a speech which is particularly worthy of the consideration of those Reformers, who are appa rently never so much pleased as when they are finding fault with the conduct of Ministers, and not only find ing fault with it, but holding it up to popular repro bation. The obvious and natural effect of this course ° f proce e di ng , if i t h ave any e ff ect ato ll , i s to prepare t h e boy for the restoration to power of th a t detested fac e, whose blighting influence had reduced this great c ountry to the very brink of ruin, when the manage ment of its affairs, by the blessing of Providence, was undertaken by wise and liberal statesmen. The danger arisin g from dissension among the Reformers was for cibly pointed out by Lord SEGRAVE, and the absolute n ecessity of union and energy, if it was seriously wished that the present Government should continue to direct t he destinies of the nation. We can scarcely believe, I s it would appear Lord SEGRAVE does, that the ;hers who, while they profess extreme principles of e f°rrri, take delight in dwelling upon what they con ceive to be the short-comings of the Melbourne Admi nistration are in the pay of the Tories. We must, at the sam e time, admit that they play the game of the Tories as effectually as if they received the gold of the Carlton Club. t Mr. TRACEY also made a most excellent speech, in w "ich he took occasion to expose the fallacy of the b which it is so much the fashion for some Re formers to sport, n amely, that little or nothing has been do ne for Reform during the last session of Parliament. t ° refutation of this inconsiderate and superficial, not Say absurd, view of the progress made in the improve ments of our i nst i tut i ons d ur i ng t h e per i o d a ll u d e d to, Mr. T RACEY adduc e d the Tithe Commutation Bill, and the abolition of Orang e Societies. He might also have in stanced th e R eg i stration and Marriage Acts, which, though l app arent l y h e l d 41 little estimation by the more at riguine among the Reformers, are, in our opinion, the most important measures, in regard to their permanent b earing on the cause of liberty, which have passed the L egislature since the Reform Bill itself. f . 1 , The L am b e th M ee ting on the questi on o f P eerage cforrn, which took place last night at Kennington, gtrill not be without its effects on the country. When th, 4i provinces see that the metropolis is beginning to 14n they will stir also ; and prove, to quote the Chair t 'a obse rva ti on , t h at " t h e quest i on o f P eerage Re or has made more p rogress i n t h e course o f the last Yamtl,elllie months, than th e f ormer quest i on o f a R e f orm o f t • ouse of Commons m a d e i n t we l ve t i mes t h e pe roti.,, t It is greatly to the credit o f th e M em b ers f or etb, that both spoke out boldly and un di sgu i se dly the necessity of a Reform in the H ouse o f L or d s , h i t at Hou se did not speedily recover it s senses , w hi c h n ev h othin e: will ; f or , as th , e , old adag e , says , " out o f hes 3 to cometh nothing, and it would be s h eer mad atv expect a restoration to reason, in those wh o e are e e r I ?ad any reason to return to.

Alr• ANDERSON, in the substance of the propo 7 iht,Wh tcli he brought forward at the Lambeth meet 41°Ple;.ainelY, that Ministers are worthy of the 8 confidence ; and that splits and divisions • z, among Reformers arc, at the present crisis, most cau tiously to be guarded against. Union among them selves, and a generous, though not a blind confidence in Ministers, should now be the watchwords of all Reformers. It is ridiculous, when the enemy is thun dering with all his combined forces at the gate, for the holders of the beleaguered citadel to fall co splitting of hairs, and cavilling with each oth er on some fine a b s t ract t h eory. Combination is what we now want ; and above all, confidence in the good faith of those who are our own chosen leaders in the battle. But to return to the Lambeth meeting. That borough having paved the way and spoken out boldly on the question of Peerage Reform, what should prevent Marylebone, Finsbury, and the Tower Ham lets following the same example ? Messrs. BULWER and WAKLEY, and LUSHINGTON and DUNCOMBE, need only have the hint given them, to follow it up in the spirit that becomes such zealous Reformers. Advices from Lisbon to the 23d inst. have been re ceived by the Transit steamer, which arrived at Fal mouth on the 26th. The country was then tranquil. The general election of the Cortes commenced on the 20th, and was to continue for seven days—that being the period fixed by the Constitution for the election of Deputies. It would be premature to express a decided opinion as to the political bias of the new Chamber. The belief however was, that the recent conspiracy to overthrow the Constitution would operate very power fully against the supporters of Don PEDRO's charter. Money was exceedingly scarce; nevertheless the new Minister, M. PASSAS had managed to pay off the arrears of pay due to the troops on the Spanish fron tier—contrived to provide money and clothing for the Portuguese auxiliary Legion in Spain—and to crown all, sent eighty contos of ready money to the bank. It is right to observe here that it was whispered in Lis bon, that M. PAssA s had been constrained to raise this money by mortgaging, at an immense sacrifice, certain government revenues derived from the Cape de Verde Islands for the years 1839 and 1840. If this report be correct, Portugal has only been relieved from present difficulties to experience future wants still more ruinous. The system of anticipating the revenues of a State by mortgages, is one of the very worst means of providing money that can possibly be devised. But if the Cortes be holiest and sufficiently well-informed, the pecuniary difficulties against which the Govern ment has to struggle will quickly be removed. It re quires but a moderate degree of political sagacity to make Spain and Portugal—now that these countries are relieved from the incubus of despotism—emporiums of wealth and commercial greatness. Let the Govern ments of both only begin by removing all restriction s upon trade—by abolishing all crown monopolies—a n d by inviting commerce to their shores, and interested stock-jobbers will no longer have it in their power to reduce them to a condition bordering upon bankruptcy. While on board of his Britannic Majesty's ship Cornwallis, in the Tagus, previous to his sailing for England, M. SILVA CARVALHO, late Portuguese Minister of Finance, addressed three letters to M. PASSAS, approving of his appointment to succeed him. This is a guarantee to the nation of M. PASSAS' financial ability. His reputation is unsullied, and he has the rare merit of being personally respected by those most opposed to him in political opinions. It is with much pleasure that we observe the efforts of an influential portion of the Lisbon Press directed to effect a reconciliation between the champions of the Charter and the Constitution. The following extract from the Lisbon English Mail is presumed to embody the sentiments of the present Cabinet. They are worthy of an honest and enlightened Administration : " Don Miguel still remains at Rome, but his movements seem to indicate his determination to leave Italy. From the open avowal of his followers, and other circumstances connected with Dom Miguel's party, we cannot but recog nise subtle wisdom in the present tactics of the hidden ene mies of Constitutional Liberty far superior to any that was manifested in the council of the usurper during the civil war. However, the partial reconciliation which has taken place in consequence of the events at Belem, between those who fought under the banners of the Queen and Charter for Constitutional Liberty, will no doubt be rendered com plete by the judicious and conciliatory conduct of the pre sent Government. " While these intestine dissensions exist, the Constitu tional party sink in the estimation of other nations, sympa thy vanishes, the pecuniary resources of the country are straightened, confidence destroyed, commerce checked, and ardour and enthusiasm paralysed ; and the old chiefs who led the armies of liberty to victory absent themselves. O n the other hand the most exaggerated and calumnious reports further encourage the hopes of the general enemies of free Constitutions, by whom Dom Miguel is instigated once more to make an attempt to plant the standard of absolu tism on the free soil of Portugal. What, then, is the duty, what the policy, of every true friend of Constitutional li berty ? To forget and forgive,' to rally round the Throne of the Queen, to look to the future, to drown all personal considerations, jealousies, rivalries, and pecuniary interests in the great principle of union. ~. . . .. W e look upon the unqualified adoption of this prin ciple, as the only one which may produce a general recon ciliation, and upon which lasting independence may be se cured." The Government was about to issue a decree for ;he total abolition of the slave trade. This infamous traffic has been openly carried on by vessels sailing under the Portuguese flag, and, it is well known, with ,he secret concurrence of the authorities. New York Papers to the 2d inst. have been for warded to us by our Correspondent at Portsmouth. Nothing is talked of in the United States but the Money Market, and the election of the future Presi dent. The New York Daily Express, of the Ist inst., contains the report of " a splendid Whig meeting," held at the Masonic Hall by the friends and supporters of General HARRISON. In the elegant phraseology of our Transatlantic Contemporary, "hour after hour, from six to half-past ten o'clock, Masonic Hall was crowded in every nook and corner, floor and galleries, doorways and entrances, without and within, was all as full, .fid/ P, as jamming, cramming, and squeezing, could make them." " Once in, there was neither the ability nor the will manifested to get out." The cheering was immense. The Hall shook from the foundation to the welkin. Old TAMMANY, in her best days, was more than done (out-done !) in numbers and en- thusiasm. The name of HARRISON was received with tremendous applause. Nine cheers were given, and nine more demanded."—" The Hall trembled, as though shaken by an earthquake." These selections are suffi cient to prove that there is really some spunk in an American Whig. To play the part of an earthquake by the mere exercise of lungs is no trifle, as our readers—Radical and Conservative —may convince themselves, whenever their patriotism take a turn that way. The Americans are a peculiarly favoured people. Their public press must convince the world of this. Could we appeal to SALLUST on the sub ject, the Roman historian would at once admit that Athens was not more rich in genius than New York.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER, 29, 1836 CHANCERY (THIS DAY.) THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. FORBES. The arguments in this case, which were part-heard yes terday, were concluded to-day. The case came before the Court upon demurrer to the plaintiff's bill, on the ground that the relief sought by that bill being the abatement of a nuisance ought to have been brought before the Court by information. The case related to the repair of Datchett-bridge, on which the Magistrates of Buckingham shire and Berks were at variance. In 1810, upon an indictment, it was ordered that the counties of Buckingh am and Berks should bear equally the expense of the repairs of the bridge, one part of it being in one county and the other in the other. The bridge was so repaired, but having fell again into decay in 1834, a meeting of the Magistrates of both counties took place. At that meeting it was stated, on behalf of the Berkshire Magistrates, that their surveyor had advised the repairs to be made in iron ; the Bucking hamshire Magistrates had been advised by their sur veyor to repair their part in wood ; and no arrangement having been come to between the Magistrates of each county as to the materials with which the bridge should be repaired, each party proceeded to repair their half of it, in the manner in which they had been advised by their respective surveyors. On cominf , to the ce n t re arch, the d e f en d an t s , t h e M ag i strates o f ' Berkshir e , were proceeding to cut the joists that supported it on their side, in order to replace it with iron, when they were restrained from doing so by the Vice-Chancellor, who granted an in junction upon the bill filed by the plaintiff, the Treasurer of the County of Buckingham. Mr. WAKEFIELD, Mr. JACOB, and Mr. TEED supported the demurrer, contending that the Court had no jurisdiction, and that the proper place for the matter to be discussed was the Court of Quarter Session. The LORD CHANCELLOR, who, without calling upon Mr. Knight, who, together with Mr. Lowndes, appeared to oppose the demurrer, gave judgment, over-ruling the demurrer. Mr. WAKEFIELD then said he was instructed to apply to the Court to dissolve the injunction which bad been granted by the Vice-Chancellor. Mr. KNIGHT objected to the motion, on the ground that it was a notice of motion given pending a demurrer. Mr. WAKEFIELD observed, that if that objection was intended to be insisted upon, he would not make the motion, the effect of which would be to give his Learned Friend 40s. for his costs. Mr. KNIGHT was quite willing to get what costs he could. The LORD CHANCELLOR—If it is to be considered as an abandoned motion, the Registrar will know what to do with it. Mr. ' WAKEFIELD—Then I ask for leave to give a notice of motion. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Saturday will be the seal; therefore you had better take that day. Mr. WAKEFIELD—My clients say now that they de cline making any motion on this subject. Captain FORBES, one of the magistrates of 13erks— We will obey the order of the Court, the bridge shall re main as it is ; we have done our duty, and if it falls down it will not be our fault. VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in London.) The VICE CHANCELLOR upon taking his seat this morning stated that he should not sit on Thursday, having to attend the Privy Council for Mr. Baron Parke. DAVIS V. CLOUGH. The arguments in this part heard case were resume , and had not concluded when our reporter left. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY. WEST V. POPE AND OTHERS. This was an action brought by a waterman against the proprietors of the William the Fourth steam boat to recover for damage done by that vessel to his boat. From the evidence adduced by the plaintiff, it appeared that the plaintiff was coming out from the Tower Stairs, and on passing beyond a tier of vessels to get into the stream, the William the Fourth was coming up the river, and was so near that it was almost impossible for them to avoid a collision. One of the witnesses swore that the conductors of the steamer took no notice of the boat, but ran right on ; while another said they hailed the plaintiff, desiring him to pull a-head, and he was of opinion that had he done so he might have escaped. However, the boat was struck a little astern of midship, and the bill for repairs amounted to 3/. 145., for which sum, and the loss of time while the repairs were going on, the action was brought. Mr. THESSIGER addressed the Jury for the defendants. He assured them the defendants would not have defended the action had they not been assured by the passengers who were on board at the time that the negligence was all on the side of the plaintiff, and that had he only rowed a very little harder no collision would have taken place. He com mented on the evidence, and contended that his clients were entitled to a verdict as the case stood. The LORD CHIEF BARON summed up, - and the Jury im mediately returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 5 1. CARRINGTON V. KENRICK. This was an action for assault and false imprisonment. Mr. HUMPHREY said the plaintiff was a respectable cab driver, in the service of Mr. Willingham, and the defendant the large horse-dealer in Oxford-street. On the 29th June last, the defendant got into a cab, with a bag containing 101. in silver. By some means he got out of the cab and left the money, and the cab drove off. As he had been driven by a grey horse, he made inquiries, and was told that Mr. Willingham, of Tothill-street, sent out one in a cab. On the 30th June he went to the stables of Mr. Willingham, and inquired for a grey horse. He was shown one, and he immediately said, " I will swear that is the horse I rode with yesterday." On hearing this Mrs. Wil lingham and her son came out, and the defendant said, " And that is the young man who drove me." Mrs. Wil lingham said that was impossible, for he never was out in his life. The defendant said, " I will swear to the horse, at all events." He asked to be shown the man who drove the horse, and was taken to the plaintiff's house. Plaintiff was not at home, but the defendant, who had taken a policeman with him, ordered him to search the house, saying to the wife of plaintiff, " where is that bag of money your husband brought home last night ?" She said he brought no bag of money home ; but Mr. Kendrick, who was in a great passion, with the assistance of the policeman, searched every part of the House. While the search was going on the plaintiff came home, and was immediately charged with the robbery, and taken into custody. He was dragged through the streets from his house, and taken to the station-house. He was detained till twelve o'clock next morning, and was then charged with the robbery-- with assaulting Mr. Kendrick and the policeman, and with tearir ° , the coat of the latter. Wh en t h e w h o l e case was stated to the Magistrate he dismissed the plaintiff, and told the defendant and the policeman that it was lucky he had not broken their heads. So close was the custody of the plaintiff that when his Master, who respected him, went to see him, he was refused ; and lie was not even allowed to give him any clean linen. It was a strange fact that the defendant had since pro secuted to conviction the man who had stolen his money. Surely then, when he found out what was the fact, he ought to have made the plaintiff; who, though a poor man, was a respectable one, some recompense ; but from that time to the present he had made no offer of the kind. But he (Mr. H.) trusted the Jury would give such exemplary damages, as would teach the defendant that even a cabman would be protected. The case, as stated, was proved by Mrs. Willingham and Mr. Forbes, the Inspector, who took the charge, with the addition that the plaintiff was drunk at tlu: time he was taken to the station-house. KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Lord DENMAN and a Common Jury.) MATTHEWS V. SCOTT. Sir WILLIAM FOLLETT (With whom were Mr. KELLY and Mr. HENDERSON) stated the case. It was an action brought by Richard Matthews, a wholesale paper manu facturer, carrying' on business in High-Holborn, against Alexander Scott, a Writer to the Signet, in Edinburgh. It appeared from the statement of Counsel that in the year 1833 Mr. Glindon, a printer, introduced to the plaintiff a Captain White, who represented himself as the agent of the defendant, and that he was about to get up a Company and obtain subscriptions for building a harbour near Edin ' burgh. Matthews was induced to take a hill for 501. drawn by White, and accepted by Scott, for which he gave goods and cash, and that bill was duly honoured. White afterwards gave Matthews a bill for 601., accepted by Scutt, for which he also got goods and cash, and the bill was after some legal proceedings paid. Scott then pro ceeded by indictment against Matthews, his partner, and White, for a conspiracy to cheat and defraud him of a bill of exchange for 601. after it had been paid, and they were obliged to put in bail. The prosecutor, Scott, not having taken any steps to bring on the trial, the defendants were obliged to press on the cause when they ascertained that Scott had the proceed ings removed by certiorari into the Court of King's Bench. All the proceedings were, therefore, to be gone through again, but no notice of trial wa s given by the p rosecutor, i t appear i ng t o b e hi s o bj ect to keep the prosecution hanging o v er them. Upon the application of Scott the trial was postponed, and a second application for postponement was refused, the Lord Chief Justice observ ing that if an action for a malicious prosecution was insti tuted it would only increase the damages. The case at g length cam e on — t h e prosecutor , S co tt, did not appear— and the def en d ants were acqu i tte d. H e wool,; proyp tq the Jury, that th ere vvaa no t the slightest rottoa for that Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL.—Witness [ad bills to the amount of several hundred pounds discount ed by the plaintiffs in the most honourable way, having dealt with them for upwards of 40 years. Captain White got some grocery paper from Matthews on account of the bill, and witness knows the grocer it was sold to. Under stood White got 301. in cash out of the 60/. bill. Scott saw the proofs of the prospectuses about Trinity Harbour, which witness was printing. Witness always understood that the land upon which the harbour was to be built be longed to Mr. Scott. William Matthews is in partnership with the plaintiff. Richard Matthews. The last witness, Glindon, had been doin g busin ess w ith t h e h ouse f or a very long period, and had bills discounted in the way of business. White was introduced to witness by Glindon as a very honourable man engaged in building a new harbour. White gave a bill for 501., accepted by Scott, stating that he wanted some cash and goods, and gave a reference to the city, which turned out to be satisfactory. White had the goods and cash, and the bill was regularly paid. At the end of January 1834, White came again, and said he wanted goods, tendering an overdue bill, accepted by Scott as a security. Witness took a bill of White's for 601., and held also Scott's bill as a security. When White had 401. worth of goods witness had a notico that they were offered for sale in the city under their value, and witness remonstrated with White about it. He then had the balance (20/.) in cash. After White's bill was dishonoured witness endeavoured to find him out, but could not, and Scott, in consequence of some proceedings taken by witness's attorney, called upon him, begged he would stay proceedings, and that he would pay the moiety on the following Tuesday. Witness never saw Scott afterwards, and ascertained that he had left for Scotland. Proceedings were subsequently taken, and witness reco vered the debt and costs. Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—The next cause in the list is au action by witness against Scott for a malicious prosecution. Does not believe that his brother will be a witness for him. It was out of the last bill that White had some grocer's paper. Scott's bill was about four months over due. Did not observe whether it was noted for non-payment or not. Edvvard Alpress, a shopman in the plaintiff's service, proved the delivery of the goods to White, which were charged at a fair and reasonable price. James Lane, solicitor, was a clerk to the plaintiff's attorney when the indictment for conspiracy was pre ferred against Matthews. Separate Counsel were instructed for White and Matthews, and witness believes, if White did not pay his own expenses, that Matthews would have done so. When Lord Denman refused the se cond application for postponing the trial, he said, " If an action was brought for a malicious prosecution it would only enhance the damages." Mr. Jones, who was Counsel for the prosecutor, consented to a verdict for the defendants. The affidavits used in postponing the trial should be filed in the Marshal's-office. Frederick B. Beaver, plaintiff's attorney, was examined at great length relative to the proceedings instituted by and against his clients, but nothing material was elicited. James Passmore acted as the legal adviser of White. When proceedings were taken against him for the 601. bill, witness, in an interview with Scott, told him that he thought it very unjust in Mr. Scott to take White into custody and bring him away from Scotland, where he had ac tions pending against Scott. This conversation took place at the Edinburgh Castle in the Strand, where White was in custody. Scott said he had been well advised as to th e course he was taking. Witness told Scott that he thought the matters pending between him and While should be left to arbitration, and that it was unfair to join respectable tradesmen such as the Messrs. Matthews, in an indictment which must fall to the ground. Scott said he did not intend to proceed against the Messrs. Matthews. George Turner, clerk, to Mr. Thomas, a solicitor, took instructions from Mr. Scott relative to the indictment pre ferred against the plaintiff. Frederick B. Beaver re-examined—Mr. Matthew's ex penses in the indictment amounted to 1201. 4s. 9d., ex clusive of Captain 'White's expenses. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom was Mr. I'llE5- El - G E O, addressed the Jury for the defendant. He ad dressed them with considerable anxiety, for although it had be en frequently his fortune to be opposed to Mr. Scott, and to thwart him to a certain degree in his proceedings re lative to the Trinity Harbour Bill, yet he felt bound to ad mit that Mr. Scott was a gentleman of undoubted integrity and honour. Mr. Scott was that day opposed by fearful odds—his mouth was shut, and he could not be called as a witness, to show how he had paid that 601. to Captain White, and which he was a second time compelled to pay. The Learned Counsel proceed to comment in strong terms up on th e circumstance of Mr. Wm. Matthews, brother of the plaintiff, who had an equal interest in the cause with his brother, being put into the box and examined as a witness. That in itself was sufficient to throw suspicion upon the case ; and what made the matter still more suspicious, was that the plaintiff had refrained from calling Capt. White, whose evidence was most material to the case, and who could have placed the transaction in its proper light. The Learned Counsel had not concluded his address when our reporter left.

The Learned Counsel con tended there had been great delay in the taking of the ac counts, the decree having been obtained in July, 1835, and th e creditors having been kept out of their money up to the present moment, although it was not pretended the estate of the testator would not realise sufficient to pay every creditor. Mr. KINDERSLEY and Mr. ANDERDON resisted the mo tion, contending that due diligence had been used by the gentleman who had the conduct of the cause, and that the granting of th e present motion would only increase the ex pence, without any benefit to the creditors of the estate being obtained. The MASTE R of the ROLLS thought Messrs. Lloyd were entitled to attend the proceedings in the Master's office, and that they were also entitled to the costs of the present application ; but he could not go so far as to make an order before hand that the parties should have the costs ' of their attendance befor e the Master out of the estate. mist harrassing prosecution—that the bill had come into the hands of Matthews in the regulatr course of business— and that full consideration was given for it. It would be for the Jury, as men of business, to say what compensation a respectable tradesman was entitled to for the expense, in convenience, and injury to his character which he had sus tained by that unfounded prosecution. Arthur Corner, from the Crow i n Oflice, prodUced the original' bill of indictment against 'Wm. Matthews, Richard Matthews, and Wm. White, for conspiring to cheat and dcfi•aud the defendant of a certain bill of exchange for 60/., after same had been paid.

He applied to me to in troduce him to a stationer,. and I recommended him to the Messrs. Matthews. White mentioned Mr. Scott as hav ing something to do with the Trinity Harbour Bill, and appeared to be acting as the agent of Mr. Scott. Scott was represented to the Messrs. Matthews as residing in Downing-street, and as being a gentleman of large pro perty. Witness saw a bill for 501. given by White to Matthews for goods and cash.

(Sittings at Nisi Prins before the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE and a Common Jury.) UXTABLE V. WENHAM, This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a tailor re siding in the Strand, against the defendant, who is a pub lican residing at Poplar, to recover damages for an assault alleged to have been committed on the 6th of June last. It appeared from the evidence, that in May last a person of the name of Nicholls hired a four-horse coach for the purpose of conveying persons to Epsom races. Both the plaintiff and the defendant formed part of the co mpany that patronised the four-horse coach. Each party, as is usu a l on the " Derby Day, " brought their (MR provisions, VISiOnS and a s t h ere was no lack of the good things of this life, the day was passed in the greatest merri sthreeePti,a i L ht o ifi n , do e n h lan i d d i g n e, g ment.

The driver upon this tnicl the plaintiff, that if he had no objec tion he, the driver, would leave the basket at the hotne of the defendant, where it would be taken care of. This was agreed to, and in about three weeks afterwards the pra'ntiff called upon Nicholls, the driver, for his basket, and they both went to the house of the de fendant. On making enquiry there the basket was non inventus, and the wife of the defendant told them that her husband would shortly return, and then the basket would be forthcoming. The defendantappeared to be very imper tinent, and when at length the basket was produced the plaintiff examined it, and finding it was empty, said that it was no better than a robbery, and that either the de fendant or Nicholls had committed the robbery. The de fendant, upon this, struck the plaintiff, and the presen action was the consequence. The Jury fonnd a verdict for the plaintiff—D a m ages 20 ig I c .ANTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. • The RECORDER, assisted by Alderman Sir Chapman • Marshall, proceeded this morning with the trial of prisoners. Susan Elsam, a girl about twelve years of age, was in dicted for having stolen, on Saturday, the 29th of October last, a squirrel tippet and another article, the property of her master, Samuel John Gottrick. It appeared in evidence that the prisoner was employed by the prosecutor as an errand girl, and the latter having reason to suspect her honesty placed a watch upon her conduct on the day in question, when she was found in the act of stealing the articles.—She was found Guilty. The RECORDER, in passing sentence, said there was too much reason to fear that the prisoner was the instrument of persons still more depraved than Ivrselr, and that her mother encouraged her to the commission of the crime of which she was found guilty. Had the mother been con victed of the offence, which there was too much reason to suppose she had committed, it would be the duty of the Court to deal heavily with her ; and he doubted much but they should order a prosecution to be instituted again s t h er for rec e i v i ng sto l en goo d s. Th e prisoner then at the bar should be made an example of, and so sentenced that her punishment would deter all other girls in a similar employ ment from the commission of such crimes. The Court would therefore order that she be transported for a term of seven years, but a communication would be made to the Secretary of State, to the effect that she ought not to be sent beyond the seas, but detained in the House of Correc tion only so long as might be necessary for reclaiming her evil ways. Charles Mahoney was found guilty of stealing a pair of braces, the property of Daniel Desmond. He was sen tenced to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for twelve calendar months. Thomas Ward and John Sweeny, the former 18, the latter 16 years of age, were charged with having stolen a handkerchief from the person of Thomas Addison. They were found guilty ; and the Recorder, in passing sentence, said this species of offence was so frequent, that the Court had made a rule to transport all such offenders, especially where, as in the present case, the parties were before in custody, and who were over 18 years of age. Ward was therefore ordered to be transported for seven years, and Sweeny to be imprisoned for• twelve calendar months, and kept to hard labour. Win. Thomas was indicted for stealing some printed cotton, the property of William Brown. He was found Guilty. John Roberts was charged with having stolen, on the 9th of November, a handkerchief from the person of Thos. Barbour. A policeman named Childs proved having seen the pri soner picking Mr. Barbour's pocket. Roberts, in his defence, charged the witness with being himself the guilty party, but the indictment having been sustained to the satisfaction of the jury, a verdict was accor dingly returned.

In the failure which took place on Saturday, of an East India House, in the city, we are glad to state that there is every hope that the firm will again resume its mercantile operations. It is stated they have received considerable remittances. The failure at Liverpool in the Brazilian trade has been anticipated for several days.

PA ."--" ~'' "I? DEATH OF THE HON. 7 7 5 " The first time Lord Byron called at Melbourne House, he came with Moore and Rogers ; my child, a beautiful boy, of three years old, fell asleep on his knee, and he sat for two hours, fearful of awakening him. In the very spirit of prophecy, Rogers wrote, on that occasion, the following lines : " TO AN INFANT SLEEPING IN A POET'S ARMS. " Oh ! wake thee, Cherub ! sleep:not there, Where passion's throes the soul deform; So rests the seraph of the air Upon the cloud that veils the storm. " Oh ! wake thee, dearest ! for the heave Of that proud heart is fraught with care; Those arms that fold thee--to deceive, For there's a sltlimb'ring serpent there : " A serpent that will shortly wake, And IVer each flower of bliss be twined; From hope her dream of rapture take, And blight the Eden of the mind. " Then wake thee, boy—for even now The poison works with subtle art; Prepared with many a traitor vow To break thy Boating mother's heart." Lady Caroline Lamb, born Nov. 13, 1785, died in Pall-mall, on the evening of Friday, Jan. 25, 1828, in her forty-third year. The cemetery of Lord Melbourne's family is at Hatfield. CH DES OF FORGERY. We have heard recently of several casus of alleged for gery by parties m oving in a respectable sphere ; a but we purposely abstained from all premature and ex parte state ments respecting them. The apprehension of an individual last Tuesday evening, on the charg e of forging an ac ceptance to a bill of exchange, with his examination yester day at the New Bailey, and his committal for trial at the next Lancaste r A ss i zes , are now matters of publi c intelli genc3. On Tuesday evening last, the deputy constable of Manchester apprehended Mr. Benjamin Dickinson, of the firm of Samuel Dickinson and Son, cotton and waste mer chants. The prisoner, who is a young man, well attired, was agi brought te up yesterday, before Mr. F os t er, the sitting Mstra. WI:el the prisoner was placed at the bar, Mr. B said that h e was not prepared to go into the case the ra n, n on dt behalf of the prisoner, and the other side having no objec tian to allow it to stand over till the following day, he (Air. Brandt) was ready to consent that the prisoner should re main in custody till then. The bill produced was in the following form, .E 134105. Manchester, April 15, 1836. Three months after date, pay to the order of ourselves, one hundred and thirtyfour pounds ten shillings. Valr.e recd. To Messrs. Lees and Bottomley. Greenacres Moor. (Signed) SAMUEL DICKINeSON & SON. Payable in London. The acceptance purported to be by " Lees and Bot tomley, Greenacres Moor ;" and at the back the endorse ments were as stated in evidence. Mr. John Lees, of the firm of Lees and Bottomley, of Greenacres Moor, was then sworn, and having examined the bill, and that be bad not accepted it, or authorised any one to accept it for him, and that the acceptance was not his writing. Mr. Saunders then handed another bill of exchange to the witness, which was drawn on " Messrs. Lees and Bot tomley, spinners, Greenacres Moor, near Oldham." Mr. Bottomley repe4ted the same statement as to this bill, in the acceptan•ze of which his name was correctly spelled. Mr. Lee; was then recalled, and he stated that he had had so7r.c conversation with the prisoner in the Peacock, Maiket-street, about two months ago. Witness and his partner had been tirritten to about some of these bills, and he asked the prisoner, as they had been great friends, how it was he had taken the liberty of accepting them in their name ; and the prisoner replied that the accep tance was that of a Messrs. Lees and Bottomley, in Ire land, and that it was for the accommodation of Mr. James Bakewell as much as himself. He had titt taken any steps to apprehend. the prisoner a t t h at tirrte, but left the matter in the hands of the firm's at'iorneys, Messrs. Whitehead and Barlow. Mr. Saunders said that he had anth er bill, drawn by the prisoner, in the name of his fire, " Samuel Dickinson and Son," upon Mr. Robert Hr..milton, wadding manu facturer, Manchester ; which pexported to be accepted by Mr. Hamilton. It was then endorsed by the prisoner, under the firm in which he 7, , , n d his father traded, to Messrs. Dale, Atkin and Co., alra it purported to bear their en dorsement to Messrs. Daintrv, Royle and Co. Mr. Robert Hatni'A en , cotton wadding manufacturer, Edge-street, stated 'that the acceptance was not hi s writing. The drawing 'my!, endorsem en t were in the handwriting of the prisoner, 'Witness had not authorised any one to ac cept the for him. Mr. Poster intimated that in his opinion this was a suf ficier4 'reason for makinc , the chan ge i n t hi s i nstance, and t!ie prisone r was accordingly' committed to Lancaster tja.stle, and all the witnesses were bound over, in the usual recognizanees, to appear and give evidence at the next assizes at Lancaster.—illanehester Guardian of Saturday. ,~~ _ ~- .~~ " T Early on Sunday morning, the 27th\irtiiiiikfigk 7, ,14 Hon.

THE DERBY. The room was thinly attended until near five o'clock, by which time a sufficient number of subscribers had "dropt in" to constitute a very tolerable muster ; betting, slack at first, improved with the attendance, and, on the whole, rather ex ceeded the average for this time of the year than otherwise. The first two bets proved Lord Exeter's to be worse favourites than last week, 18 to 1 being laid against one, and 25 to 1 against the other (in one instance 26 to 1 was betted), and both odds were afterwards currently offered. Wintonian was backed at 25 to 1, five points above the previous quotation, and 17 to 1 was offered against Flare-up. F rom t hi s it may be collected that the " bars" had the best of it. The general tendency downward was increased immediately before the close of the room by bets of 925 to 100 against each of the three favourites, the tak er i n va i n offering to double them. No odds were quoted against either of them outright, but, according to the prices on Thursday last, the layer of the odds had the worst of the betting. A new outsider appeared in brother to Elis at 40 to 1 (in Scott's stable), and brother to Mouche, backed in the spring of the year as low as 25 to 1, and a fort night ago in the country at 35 to 1, declined to 40 to 1. The betting closed as follows : a to 1 agst Lord Jersey's lot—take 6 to 1 6 to 1 agst Lord Exeter'slot--take 7 to 1 17 to 1 agst Lord Jersey's Flare-up—offered 18 to 1 agst Lord Exeter's Dardanelles--offered 25 to 1 agst Mr. Wreford's Wintonian—tal.ten 25 to 1 agst Ld Exeter's Adi ian, brother to Augustus--o e 25 to 1 agst Mr. E.
